NOAA Ship Gordon Gunter collected raw underway meteorological, navigational, optical, and physical data in the Gulf of Mexico and North Atlantic Ocean from 2019-08-07 to 2019-08-14. Office of Marine and Aviation Operations personnel submitted the data and supplementary cruise-level metadata from the Ship Daily Activity Log to the National Centers for Environmental Information. The data were archived through the automated NOAA Rolling Deck to Repository program.
Use Cases
- Correlate meteorological conditions with oceanographic parameters based on the described underway data streams.
- Analyze ship navigation patterns and environmental conditions based on the logged navigational and time series data.
- Validate automated data logging and archival processes for scientific vessels based on the NOAA R2R program description.
Strengths
- Data collection covers a specific 8-day cruise from 2019-08-07 to 2019-08-14.
- Includes multiple data types: meteorological, navigational, optical, and physical, as described.
- Contains supplementary cruise-level metadata from the Ship Daily Activity Log.
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
